Annette was also grateful for her dear niece, Trinia Bell, who provided her with assistance and support, along with Trinia’s husband David Bell, who was one her “#2 fan”. She is further survived by her loyal dog, Shep, and many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends, all of whom will carry her memory in their hearts.

Annette was preceded in death by her beloved mother, Joyce Larimore Ashby, and father, Marshall Ashby. She was also reunited with her brother Ricky Ashby and brother Wayne Ashby, embracing them in eternal rest.
